One view of Great American Politics

Month: July 2017

You may recognize the people in the photo, they look rather close. We chatted for twenty minutes or so. Absolutely nobody cares that we talked about family, history, polls, integrity, revolution, manufacturing and poetry! I came away from the meeting thinking that the Trump’s are capable and intense people. Just for a bit of background about the meeting, Don Jr travelled a considerable distance to see me. He was very impressed with my truck. I would say there were about a dozen people in attendance, my memory is not the best. I know there were both Republicans and Trump supporters in attendance. The meeting happened before the election.

We did not discuss Russian influence in our country, but maybe we should have. When I was young my father told me that Nikita Khrushchev wanted to visit the valley where I live and work. At the time it was called “Precision Valley” because of the machine tool industry. That was something that Nikita Khrushchev respected. There news at the time was that Khrushchev wanted to visit Disneyland, well Nikita’s wife wanted to visit Disneyland. Nikita wanted to visit Precision Valley.

Unions eventually ruined Precision Valley by continuously demanding greater wages and going on strike. The workers were happy with their wages, however the unions wanted to go on strike. Have to wonder if there was influence from the Soviet UNION. Whey would the unions put themselves out of business otherwise? Sure I have no direct proof, only second hand hearsay. However in today’s age of fake news this Russian collusion to shut down our manufacturing industry is just as real, if not more so than the reported Trump Russia collusion.

You don’t have to believe me, but remember, the mainstream has a history of being continually wrong.

Well this is interesting, I like Attorney General Jeff Sessions. I watched a bit of his confirmation hearings and was impressed. An early supporter of Donald Trump, Jeff Sessions is absolutely despised by the Left. So I was surprised, as many others were when the president turned his bombastic attacks on the Attorney General. So do you think the president is doing this to please the Left? I have a bridge to sell you.

Of course the answer is simple, it is the responsibility of the Justice Department to police what could be called the deep state. Jeff Sessions is doing an admirable job policing things like MS13. He is doing a great job in the traditional sense. The revelation is President Trump views “Fake News” as a crime. In actuality I have to agree with him.

Of course I don’t believe President Trump will fire Attorney General Jeff Sessions. However how does the Justice Department determine the difference between freedom of speech and criminally fake news. I suspect that we will see a more active pursuit of government leakers. We have had fake news for many years, it is nice to see the president take it on. Will he be successful? The voters will tell.

Donald J Trump Jr is guilty of being trolled. That’s it. No need to chop off his head. The Left will once again be disappointed with the results of this Nothingburger. At best it was a lame attempt at entrapment, at worst, for the Left, well, it shows that there is no evidence whatsoever of Russian cooperation with the Trump campaign.

I absolutely hate to say it, but the real reason the left does not like the Russians is because Russians are white. It is a symptom of their core values.
